I used to raise Bichons and yes, it is more than possible with small dogs - and Bichons have a number of allergy problems - especially allergies to fleas that result in hotspots.
I think the groomer got him And put the shirt back on to cover it up. I highly doubt the vet's office was aware of how bad it was - she sounds very dishonest to me. I responsible groomer would have fessed up to their error
